Ryan Collette2022-06-29 14:39:132022-06-30 16:39:56A Celebration of Land ConservationGet Involved
We’re a hardworking, homegrown group that depends on people like you. Over the past 34 years, we’ve protected over 500 parcels of land and more than 52,000 acres. Thousands of people have participated in these accomplishments and in the ongoing stewardship of conserved properties. It takes all of us, working together, to choose a vibrant, resilient and sustainable future for the Upper Valley — and to make it happen.
Indigenous People have cared for this land for centuries. The land that the Upper Valley Land Trust owns, conserves, and works on, and the land on which we all live, was first stewarded and cared for by indigenous people of the Abenaki Nation, a tribe of the Wabanaki Confederacy. These are the traditional, ancestral, unceded lands of Abenaki people, taken from them by violence. Current day non-indigenous people have benefited from that violence, and that is a history that we are reckoning with.
Indigenous People are not gone, they live here and are a part of the past, present, and future of our land and our communities. We know this acknowledgement is a small step in a bigger process of greater awareness of Native sovereignty and cultural rights. We honor with gratitude the land itself and the Abenaki people, past and present.

Wooden boat builder and New Hampshire outdoorsman Kevin Martin will discuss his new book Big Trees of Northern New England. Learn how he got involved with the Big Tree Program and how it relates to his boat building.
✨Fun fact✨: the white ash in our photo ⬆️ is in Martin's new book! Located at #UVLT's Ely Mountain Conservation Area in Thetford and Fairlee, this photo was taken in 2014. At that time the tree measured measured 205” in circumference “DBH” or diameter at breast height, which is how tree circumference is measured.
